18/October/2017 Posted by Freddy

        Today a couple from yesterdays review of Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Season 2 Episode 9: Grievous Intrigue, the Kuat Drive Yards Arquitens-class light cruiser and the Cygnus Spaceworks Eta-class shuttle both added to the Star Wars D/6 Starships Section of the Site.
        The Arquitens-class light cruiser is one of my absolute favourites out of the animated series (Rebels has a slightly updated version, but they're basically the same ship). However, this brings up a slight problem with crew numbers on Star Wars ships, comparing this to the Pelta-class frigate added a couple of days ago, they're both around the same size (325 Meters to 282.24), they've both got similar numbers of weapons (12 on the Arquitans to 8 on the Pelta), but their crew numbers don't match up at all. The Arquitans lists 2 Crew + (at least) 10 passengers, compared to the Peltas 800 Crew and 300 Passengers.
        Now, I've increased the numbers on the Arquitans, making the 2 a skeleton crew level, and since you see the Pelta with only 2 pilots, I've made 2 the skeleton crew for that as well. But given that the Arquitans is the more efficient combat vessel and is larger, it seems really quite odd that WookieePedia (and the sources they use) have decided that the Arquitens isn't much more than a glorified Lambda class shuttle, while the Pelta is a massively crewed battle cruiser.
        Just thought it mentioning . . .
